That could possibly be caused by static electricity, dirty head, mismatched profile/media combination.... Maybe you could clean the heads, make sure the media is dust-free and dis-charged of static...try a different profile? Does it happen while printing uni-directionally as well? A test-draw...

if you have your serial #'s Adobe will help you out and allow you to download and unlock for free. I had to do it last year.

Brilliant! You will be way ahead of the game...you will have the ability to control virtually every variable that interacts with your production. This will certainly pay off for you, good luck! Great Job!

I thought the vs uses the DX4 print head?

you had mentioned the silver ink...unless you laminate them, they will rub right off easily. ask for non-laminated samples before you choose that ink-set

It may be cheaper to flush the lines as the cleaning fluid is cheaper than ink if you don't plan to use it regularly. I put mine in storage and brought in four JV33's. I am about to resurrect it though (with all the helpful info I've received for this forum (thanks ArtBot!) JV3 is a reliable...

another advantage of the Summa printers is the fact that they require little maintenance when compared to the Edges, and have a better method of cleaning your vinyl prior to laying down color. These are great machines!

Summa's DC4 thermal resin printers will give you bigger graphics (i think the small model has a 24" print width,) and less operator interaction since you can load all your colors at once (up to 8 foils) and upon completion of the print, the machine will then cut the print. Thermal resin will...

that makes sense. Hopefully you can transition back to the material you tested without hurting your profit.

Direct Color Systems makes a 13"x24" flatbed UV. I use their solvent, and the general construction is very dependable. Not sure if they are available in Australia.

I have the operators pause every 4 hrs and do a quick wipe around the print heads, wiper and capping station. it only takes them 3 minutes, and doing so makes it so the equipment never has the opportunity to get really dirty; warranting a 45 minute cleaning ordeal. Some components can't...

PDF is most likely your best bet. Sometimes bounding boxes are interpreted differently form RIP to RIP too.

when you pull the perf off of the liner, does the ink still clog the holes, or does it stay on the liner? You may have luck switching to a different liner that retards UV ink...no idea what type of liner that would be though. Good Luck!

also, the cover has to be put back in place just right...there is a sensor that detects the cover. If it is not replaced correctly, you will get that "close cover - press enter" error.

if yo have time to keep wetting it with solvent until it can be easily pushed off with a swab, that would be the way to go. You can set a mirror on the floor of the cleaning bay to get a better view. I would be hesitant to use a metal scraper on it...if by chance you create a bur on the side of...

Also, print servers are great if you're too far for straight USB, but they are unstable in my experience. Some brands work better than others. Try resetting your print server to refresh your ethernet connection too. Good Luck!

tech help I will pm you an email of a really smart guy I have worked with at Roland. He is always eager to help and very knowledgeable.

do you have contact info for that company? hopefully I won't have to use them, but I am about to bring a JV3 out of storage...

thanks Fred!

Gerber 210 Dusted Crystal looks like sand-blasted glass.
